Worthwhile Reading Wiki

This Wiki has two purposes:

Purpose 1: This is a place where students can add book trailers about books they/their classmates have read. It allows the students to demonstrate understanding of the text and convey that understanding in a meaningful way.
Purpose 2: This is a place where students can preview books they would like to check out of the library. Each book that is on the Wiki has a QR code for students to scan to get to this site.
